Arrive before the Congress: San Juan

Enjoy San Juan early

If you're not working or working remotely why not arrive before the congress and take in all that San Juan has to offer.  Some will remain on a beach, others will explore the local sites and still others will travel into Puerto Rico to unveil the inner island's culinary delights and sights.
Stay within your budget by using an AirBnB in Isla Verde, San Juan which you can book on your own or we can help you.
There will be pre-parties every night in San Juan as of our group is encouraged to stay close to better communication once we head to eat, sightsee, or just hang out.

Frequently Asked Questions

About the StaY

Why should I go early?

Yes, last year some guests went only to Ponce, and missed out on beaches, eatery and comraderie with the group.  So if your budget allows join us early in San Juan.

Should I stay at Hotel or Airbnb?

In San Juan (a major city) an Airbnb meets expectations and can stretch your budget vs a hotel.  In Ponce it's best to stay at Hotel

Should I rent a car?

We can make that decision once we're there but it will be discussed further in the Whats App chat so we can coordinate everyone pending interests in Puerto Rico - last year majority just wanted to stay on beach

Do I need a passport?

US Citizens do not but are encouraged to bring, a Driver's License will suffice.  For all others please check with your country's regulations, PR is a territory of the US but you don't want to get stuck down there - so triple check
